Are draft/sales orders excluded from OuterSignal's customer analysis and lookalike audiences?

Yes. OuterSignal only pulls in orders from the Online Store sales channel in Shopify. Orders from other sales channels — such as draft orders or internal/team sales orders (e.g., wholesale, staff orders, event sales) — are not brought into OuterSignal.
​

This ensures that customer persona reports, lookalike audiences, and insights are based on real customer purchase behavior only, and are not skewed by internal or non-consumer transactions.


​Example: If your team places orders through a team sales channel (like for a sports organization or internal use), those orders will not appear in OuterSignal's analysis.


​Who this matters for: Any brand using OuterSignal's persona reports, Meta lookalike CSV exports, or customer segmentation features.
